Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

Their real intention was not on Emperor Taicheng at all. They were trying to find out the bottom line of the young emperor.

Even if Ye Shuo and He Xiang were combined, they would not be able to cover the sky with one hand. With so many officials and factions in the court, there would always be different voices.

In the court, the east wind always prevails over the west wind, or the west wind prevails over the east wind. Whether the ruler is weak and the ministers are strong, or the ruler is strong and the ministers are weak, is actually all discovered bit by bit through testing.

Everything is just about interests. They don’t care whether the emperor is young or not.

When Ye Shuo finished scolding, he lowered his head and saw that the little emperor looked unhappy.

Ye Shuo hurriedly said, “Don’t worry, the emperor’s uncle will have a good talk with them tomorrow and will definitely not let them make such a decision.”

Ye Shuo had had an argument with them during the morning court today. They were at loggerheads and almost came to blows. But this kind of thing would not be helped even if Ye Shuo came.

Emperor Taicheng is not capable of anything, this is an established fact, unless Emperor Taicheng’s descendants are powerful and capable, his father can also benefit from it. Here, parents and children have always been involved.

But if they can’t, the situation will only get worse than it is now, and both the father and the son will be trampled into the mud in one go.

Obviously the little emperor knew it in his heart.

Upon hearing this, the little emperor grabbed Ye Shuo’s sleeve tightly and blurted out: “Don’t go!”

Bringing up this matter again will not help, and it will not save my father’s reputation. It will only cause my father to be discussed and humiliated in public once again.

The little prince really didn’t want to go through the same thing again. It felt like he was being fried in a frying pan or roasted in fire.

“If I were strong enough, they would not dare to say anything.” In the final analysis, he was not a good enough son.

However, when Ye Shuo heard this familiar argument, his scalp went tingling.

Xiao Ming is gone just like that. If Xiao Ye Jin also…

Ye Shuo was startled and said hurriedly: “You must not think like that, do you hear me?”

The young emperor had never seen his ninth uncle so serious, and his tone became heavy.

“Listen to me, your father’s problem is not that he is not capable enough. On the contrary, it is because he is too capable and too strong-willed. No matter what he does, he will not stop until he has done it to the best of his ability. As a result, he became ill from overwork and died young. If he had lived longer, do you think this would have happened?” ȒɴȮᛒÊṡ

Ye Shuo knew in his previous life that the body is the capital of revolution. Without a good body, everything else will be in vain.

“So you must take good care of yourself. Don’t be anxious. Take it step by step. You still have plenty of time. Besides, posthumous titles are not set in stone. When you become an adult, you can change it however you want. By then, no one will dare to say a word.”

Having said that, but…but it has been too long, so long that it makes people despair.

The young emperor simply couldn’t stand the thought that his father would be talked about like this for eight or ten years, or even ten to twenty years.

That was the father he revered the most in his life…

“Ninth uncle, my father is not as useless as they say. He is really, really powerful. He once told me that he would be a better and more powerful emperor than my grandfather. Even when he was so sick that he couldn’t get out of bed, he didn’t relax at all. He had people send memorials to the Chengming Hall every day, and he would not rest until he had approved them. And he didn’t raise those Taoist priests for himself, but for me. And the fifth uncle, the seventh uncle, the eighth uncle, is also for me…”

Others said that Emperor Taicheng was cruel and had poor popularity. After his death, no one even volunteered to help carry his coffin. But the young emperor knew that his father acted like this in order to clear obstacles for him before his death.

How could the young emperor endure this?

And how could Ye Shuo not know what he said?

“Uncle knows. Uncle knows everything you said.” Ye Shuo had watched Emperor Taicheng grow up. No one knew better than him how much Emperor Taicheng had sacrificed in his life.

“But… as I said before, your health is the most important thing.”

Ye Shuo has experienced this, so he knows this, but those who have not experienced it will never know the meaning of this sentence.

Those who don’t know will fall into this trap one after another.

Emperor Taicheng, an adult, could not do it. How could the little emperor, who was only ten years old, do it?

Therefore, the little emperor’s next words only made Ye Shuo feel a chill to the bone –

“But if I can’t get what I want, then what’s the point of having this body?”

The moment the words fell, Ye Shuo’s eyes went dark.

As expected, the little emperor did what he said. Look at what this good child has been taught to do. Ye Shuo really wanted to pull Xiao Ming out of the imperial mausoleum and give him a beating.

However, this time, Ye Shuo could not just sit back and watch.

It would have been fine if he had not agreed at the beginning, but now that he has already promised Xiao Ming, he naturally will not go back on his word.

Ignoring the little emperor’s desperate protests, Ye Shuo simply moved into the palace to live and eat with him.

Struggle, struggle, let’s see who can prevail!

What’s more, Ye Shuo even asked Xing Yucheng to help him make a schedule. When Xing Yucheng knew that this thing would be used on the current emperor, he felt terrible.

Although the new emperor is young, he is still the emperor after all. When he grows up, how can he not hate me as his accomplice?

Xing Yucheng couldn’t help but comfort himself: “Not necessarily, what if the emperor doesn’t know it’s me?”

“What are you thinking about? Can I write such beautiful characters?” Over the years, Xing Yucheng has perfected his left-handed handwriting, but Ye Shuo, the lazy guy, is still standing still.

Ignoring Xing Yucheng’s bitter face as his dream was suddenly shattered, Ye Shuo picked up the page of paper in front of him and began to read.  

Go to bed at the hour of Shu and get up at the hour of Mao. No matter what, you must ensure four hours of sleep a day. The little emperor is in poor health, so it is not suitable for him to do strenuous exercise. After getting up at the hour of Mao, it is just right to do the Five Animal Exercises or radio gymnastics for half an hour facing the rising sun.

Then it’s time for breakfast. For breakfast, you should eat a combination of meat and vegetables, eat more fresh vegetables, drink a glass of milk every day, and supplement with more calcium and vitamins.

After breakfast, listen to the lectures given by Prime Minister He and Lord Cen. Rest for a quarter of an hour every half hour. It is compulsory. Do not sit, stand or lie down for a long time. You must move more.

Have a picnic every seven days, go out for a walk, and relax. Children are at an age of having fun, how can they stay at home all the time?

Get more sun, wash your hands frequently, and occasionally do some handicrafts, cultivate hobbies and artistic cells.

After looking through it carefully again and not finding any problems, Ye Shuo personally pasted the paper on the wall with glue to ensure that the little emperor could see it as soon as he got up.

The little emperor opened his mouth and was about to say that he didn’t have so much time to waste on such trivial matters, but he saw that the young man had someone spread his bedding on the ground, as if he wanted to supervise him at all times.

Ye Shuo’s sacrifice was extraordinary, and he was determined to correct the little emperor’s “bad habits”.

The young emperor was not an ungrateful person. He knew that his uncle was doing this for his own good, but the urgency in his heart was not so easily extinguished.

Ye Shuo played a game of cat and mouse with the little emperor.

Almost every day, He Xiang and his men were interrupted several times by the young regent.

“bite.”

“The time has come. Stop for a moment. Stop for a moment.”

The two people couldn’t help feeling a little depressed as they were talking about the critical moment.

Ye Shuo pretended not to see anything and walked out with the little emperor.

Of course, Ye Shuo did not completely deny the little emperor a chance. Seeing that the little emperor was not convinced, Ye Shuo suggested that the little emperor play games with him, such as drawing lots, rock-paper-scissors, or even Gobang. If the little emperor won, Ye Shuo would exempt him from his rest time for the day. On the contrary, if the little emperor lost, he would have to listen to Ye Shuo for the whole day.

This method sounds fair at first glance, but the little emperor is only ten years old now, how can he be a match for Ye Shuo?

Drawing lots was originally a game based purely on luck, and with Ye Shuo’s crazy cheating, the little emperor never won once.

As expected of a contemporary magician, his hand speed is so fast.

He Xiang, who was standing next to him, looked at the chess game in front of him, which was obviously different from the previous one, and couldn’t help but fall into deep thought. On the one hand, he was glad that the regent had not yet mastered this skill, and on the other hand, he felt that he was being too bullying now.

“Your Highness, the Emperor is still a child.”

Ye Shuo nodded: “Well, then we can’t let him go.”

He Xiang: “…”

He Xiang thought he knew him well enough, but he couldn’t help being shocked by his shamelessness.

After dark, the little emperor, who had lost once again, reluctantly put down the book in his hand and climbed onto the bed at Ye Shuo’s urging. Thinking of today’s disastrous defeat, the little emperor couldn’t help but said bitterly: “Uncle Nine, I hate you.”

Ye Shuo nodded absentmindedly and replied casually: “Yeah, uncle loves you.”

The little emperor’s face turned red and he swallowed back the words he was about to say.

Ye Shuo was tucking in the quilt for him and didn’t notice it at all.

When he lay down in bed, Ye Shuo couldn’t help thinking, if he counted the days, there should be news from Liangzhou, probably in the next few days.

Furthermore, the little emperor’s situation is different from Xiao Ming’s. Xiao Ming originally had a good body, but he ruined it himself. The little emperor, on the other hand, was born like this, and it is difficult to recover even if he wants to.

But after all, it was still of some use. At least the little emperor’s complexion was better than before.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Shuo received a letter from Yao Zhi.

The moment he opened the letter, Ye Shuo had a bad feeling, and after reading it, his premonition came true.

When Yao Zhi didn’t see Ye Shuo return after the national mourning, she knew that something must have held him back from going to the capital. But thinking about it, this was normal. If Emperor Taicheng was still alive, he would definitely not stay. Now that Emperor Taicheng was gone, leaving only two young children, given his personality, it was impossible for him to sit idly by.

Even if it were Yao Zhi herself, she would make the same choice.

She would definitely not blame him, but whether she would come back or not was another matter.

Yao Zhi wrote a lot of thoughtful words in the letter, but it all boiled down to one sentence: Come on, I believe in you, so I took my daughter out to play by myself.

Sure enough, after the novelty wore off, she finally got tired of herself.

Ye Shuo almost cried after reading it.

He knew it would turn out like this!

The little emperor was wondering when no one came to urge him for a long time. As a result, when he went out, he saw his uncle squatting at the wall outside, holding a letter in his hand, his fingers constantly stroking the letter papers, his eyes full of nostalgia.

If it weren’t for me, he should have been reunited with Princess Rui.

The little emperor felt inexplicably sad.

The little emperor suddenly became obedient.
